Eighty percent of participants in a recent poll said they supplement staffing or heavily rely on advanced practice providers to fill care gaps.

In a LinkedIn poll, Becker’s asked, “With physicians in short supply, how reliant is your organization on advanced practice providers to fill gaps?”

The poll received 262 votes and was conducted July 28. Becker’s does not have insights on the respondents’ organizations or roles.

Here are results from the poll:

Heavily — it’s our strategy: 43%

Somewhat, as a supplement: 37%

Minimally — MD-led model: 10%
